one of my friends had the same problem. he reinstalled windows, and it worked. his usb ports are now working and he is also able to shut down his computer

check for a  bad PSU cable. i seen on the net .that someone  had the same thing going on. and this is how he fixed it

all so check for any  ( sleep state setting. and turn them off._)

. in your bios. and in windows

slow shut downs cause by errors will show up in your event viewer.

if you have recently been using a disk optomizer then you may have set it up to defrag or clear the page file at shut down. if so run the app again and turn this off.

 

boot into windows and run sfc /scannow this will repair any broken windows components. (if you see any errors relating to broken windows files in the event viewer).

 

run a reg cleaner and clean up any hdd fragmented files.

its ok to keep your AMD cool n quiet

 in the bios the way you have

check your power setting .to see if its set to Suspend, in the bios. 

check out the mother board manual
